Two Months!

Can you believe that Molly dolly is two months old!?! That's just crazy to me. She is just the sweetest, cutest little thing that ever was.
We go in for her two month appointment on Monday; we'll see how that goes. There are a few things Steve and I are worried about with Molly. She is always crossing her eyes! It's the weirdest thing, yet it's way cute. Hopefully it's nothing serious and just a phase.


For those that didn't know, I returned to work this past week after a lovely two month maternity leave. I had a really hard time leaving Molly and would cry all the way to work. I'm so grateful to my Mom and Steve who watch her- it really helps knowing that she is in good hands with people that love her and not with some stranger at a care facility. Before my leave, I let my Boss know that I wanted to have a 4 day work week, so that I could have more time with Molly. I'm so grateful that I get that extra day with her!
One plus about going back to work, is that I am forced to doll myself up. No more sweats for this Momma! It's nice to spend some time getting ready when I hadn't done it for two months. I made myself some fun new stuff to wear with my skirts and they were a HIT!!! It's really in trend right now to wear stockings that peak out of your boots. Sadly our budget no longer has lots of room to buy new clothes SO I made my own! Can you guess what they are!? Sweater sleeves! Boo-ya! I had a mustard yellow sweater in my closet that had totally lost it's shape and was very unflattering. So, I cut it up and now have me some trendy new stockings :) It's a fun cheap way to spice up an outfit, and it doesn't hurt to have an extra layer since it's freezing outside.

2 Love Notes:

Love the sweater socks. No worries about crossing eyes. I had a couple kids do that all the time and it's just something funny they do.

I love the sweater idea too! I also no longer have room in my budget for clothes, but have been wanting these. I'll have to make some! Molly is the cutest btw :).
